Happy Throwback Thursday! I wanted to quickly share some old User Interfaces(UI) from Microsoft's Windows. There has been many different versions of Windows throughout Microsoft's inception. (Windows 95, Windows 2000, Windows Vista, Windows XP, etc.) Microsoft has modified the usability of each interface to adapt to the ever changing times. The first picture is a screenshot of the user interface of Windows 1.0, the very first Windows operating system to come out in 1985.
Fast forward to today, Windows has developed multiple operating systems, which for the most part have been quite successful. Most recently Microsoft came out with Windows 8, a complete change for the user experience. Using tiles to connect to people, apps, files, and websites, this is a complete make over for Windows.
There is a lot of controversy regarding Windows 8 being Microsoft's biggest flop, but whether you hate the new UI or love it, it's great to see how much has evolved since the first Windows operating system came out.
Cheers!
